..you could put a picture of yourself standing next to your steel in a Superman suit on the CD cover and call it "Man of Steel"..gorgeous chick hanging on you is optional..

..you could put a picture of yourself leaning into your steel and getting the checkered flag about a half length in front of a NASCAR racer call it "Put the Pedal to the Metal"..no ballads on this one!..

You could do a Christmas album called "Bethlehem Steel".

Don't let them revenuers find your "Moonshine Steel".

It's a wonder that I'm "Steel Pickin' After All These Years".

If you're from western Pennsylvania, you might be a "Pittsburgh Steeler".

"Glisserados Waiting for a Refrain" (with my apologies to Guy Clark, and the Forum Members)

I played the Red River Valley
He’d sit in the kitchen and pick
Run his tone bar over seventy years of steeling
I wonder Lord has every bar I played gone dry?
We were friends me and this old man
Like two glisserados waiting for a refrain
Two glisserados waiting for a refrain

He was a drifter, a driller of knee level pilot holes,
A teacher, and old schoolman of the steel
Taught me how to pick his horn when he was too drunk to
He’d wink, learn’t me to finger block while watching girls
And our lives were like some old dusty Sho~Buds
Just like glisserados waiting for a refrain,
Like glisserados waiting for a refrain

Well, one day I looked up and he was pushing eighty
Brown tobacco stains down his pack-a-seat
To me he was a hero of this country
So what’s he doing all out of tune with rusty strings?
Just drinking beer and doing palm harmonics
We were glisserados waiting for a refrain
Glisserados waiting for a refrain

The day before he died I went to see him
I was grown, he almost gone
And we closed our eyes and dreamed us up a honky tonk
And we steeled one more verse to that old song
Come on, Jack, that refrain is coming

Glisserados waiting for a refrain
Glisserados waiting for a refrain
